Renewable energy company Methes Energies today announced that it has received producer and marketer certifications from the National Biodiesel Accreditation Commission (NBAC).

Through its cooperative and voluntary program, the National Biodiesel Accreditation Program, the NBAC awards certifications to producers and marketers of biodiesel fuel called BQ-9000®. The program consists of a blend of industry standard measures for biodiesel and a quality systems program that includes storage, sampling, testing, blending, shipping, distribution, and fuel management practices.

For accreditation, companies must undergo a narrowly tailored review and in-depth inspection of their quality control processes by an independent auditing party. Companies that attain the program’s marketing or producer certifications have been shown to meet strict quality standards for producing biofuel or handling and selling it.

Nicholas Ng, president of Methes Energies, said, “We are very proud of this achievement. There are not many companies that are both accredited as a producer and a marketer by the NBAC. Our team has done a great job over the last several months to place the company in this unique position. Both accreditations send a strong message to our clients that we take quality and processes very seriously.”
